[Ofa_boardplus] Tomorrow's XWG meeting is cancelled

[Grun, Paul]

Nothing requiring an XWG discussion tomorrow.  Small teams continue to make excellent progress in the following areas

  1.  A proposal to deliver the 2020 Workshop content online.  The TPC and logistics teams are grappling with a series of related issues:
     *   How many of the original 20 sessions would be presented?
     *   What about other types of events, such as BoFs, lightning talks, Meet the Experts, etc?
     *   Timing and duration of the virtual event - number of hours per day, number of days per week, breaks, and so on.
I expect we will have more to discuss at next week's XWG meeting.

  1.  Fabric Software Development Platform (FSDP) proposal is shaping up quite quickly.  This is the successor to former OpenFabrics Interop Logo Program. Look for this at an upcoming XWG meeting
  2.  Abstract Fabric Manager.  Discussion of this continues in small teams, leading to a question for the Board - should we charter a working group to pursue this?
  3.  IPR Policy and Bylaws.  We are very close to closing on the IPR policy, and continue to work with the lawyers to close on the Bylaws text.
As always, input and involvement in any or all of the above is highly encouraged.  A short note to me or Jim Ryan will get you instantly in touch with the team focusing on a given area.

Regards,
-Paul
